  • Question

    Can you help identify this plant? It grows in woods near field edge in Enfield, ME in this one spot. Many stems come out of the ground. I haven't seen another viburnum in this area with the same leaf shape and two-tone color (yellowish green near the stem and middle of the leaf, darker green elsewhere).

    Dear Kimberly, good morning. Are there any reproductive (or at least taller) invidivuals in the area? If not, can you get an image of the branchlet and winter buds? That would help me identify this plant for you. You can send the images to ahaines@nativeplanttrust.org or post them here. Thank you.
